Hi Tweets,

Following the recent storm, the Asian Pear trees are still hanging on to the last of their overly ripened fruit. Just now during a sun break, I spied five flickers, and one Pileated Woodpecker, all in one tree, having lunch. Also, two hummingbirds were busy working the rain filled hollows on the torn pears. Hard to tell if the hummers were only drinking, or if they were getting any of the abundant fruit flies. A lovely sunny moment.
